PHP: Less Popular than ADA ?????

PHP: Less Popular than ADA ????? 01/05/2003 09:07 AM
PHP: Less Popular than ADA ????? Slashdot is citing a good article that looks at popularity of programming languages in terms of the number of jobs advertising for them. The number 1 is Java with 2,739 jobs on Monster. PHP, which isn't even on the list, has 189 jobs when I do the query myself. That puts PHP at about 1/2 the popularity of Ada. Oh dear god. [_Go_] On Dice there are just 30 PHP jobs which puts PHP behind Ada, Fortran, Scheme, Python and Smalltalk. And on HotJobs it is impossible to tell how many jobs they have since they are indexing the file extensions of URLs with PHP as searchable text. DOH ! (Try looking at the Entry Level Construction - Training jobs and you'll see that the only citation of PHP is in the url to apply). The FuzzyGroup offers search engine consulting services to avoid this kind of foolishness. We have over 15 years of combined experience in implementing search engine technology and avoiding silliness like this. So does this mean to increase my marketability I need to toss my PHP books out the door and hunker down with books on Fortran or Ada? Yikes. I think I'd rather dig ditches.
